Recycling Process

Nike makes an effort to use recyclables in its products whenever possible. For each 2012 national Men’s soccer team, Nike made the uniforms out of recycled water bottles and 96 percent recycled polyester. Each kit (shorts and jersey) used about 13 recycled bottles, including 7 in each jersey.Nike sponsors 10 national soccer teams such as the Netherlands, Brazil, Portugal, USA, Croatia, and Turkey and they made each uniform this way.
